3. Hazard Identification
The Lithium Thionyl Chloride Batteries have hermetically sealed structure, so they are not
hazardous when they are used in the recommendations of the manufacturer.
Do not short circuit, recharge, puncture, incinerate, crush, immerse, force discharge or expose
to temperatures above the declared operating temperature range of the product. Risk of fire or
explosion.
Under normal usage conditions, the electrode materials and liquid electrolyte cannot be leaked
to the outside. Risk of exposure only in case of abuse (mechanical, thermal, electrical) which
leads to the activation of safety valves and/or the rupture of the battery container.

4. First Aid Measures

Eye Contact - Immediately flush eye with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Seek medical attention.
Skin Contact - Immediately flush skin with plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes.
Seek medical attention.
Inhalation - Immediately remove to fresh air. If necessary, administer oxygen and seek medical
attention.
Ingestion - Immediately wash mouth with plenty of water and drink plenty of water.
Seek medical attention

5. Fire Fighting Measures

Lith-X (Class D extinguishing media) and Dried Sand are effective extinguishing media on fires
involving a few lithium batteries. If cells are already catching a fire, do not use Water, CO2,
Halon and Dry Powder or Soda Ash Extinguishers.
If the fire is in adjacent area and the fire is not progressed, CO2 Extinguishers or copious
amounts of cold water can be effective extinguishing media to cool down burning Li-SOCl2 cells
and batteries.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Under abusive conditions, the battery contained materials may leak.
Put the leaked batteries into small container or plastic bag adding the neutralizing agents of
Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), chalk (CaCO3) or lime (CaO) powder.

7. Handling and Storage

Handling Do not crush, puncture or short circuit. Do not directly heat or solder, over charge
the battery or forced discharge. Do not throw into fire.
Storage - Store in a cool (below 30) and ventilated area with less temperature and moisture
effect. Do not place near heating equipment or direct sunlight for a long time. Keep
the batteries in original battery package.
Others - Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries are not rechargeable batteries and should not be
charged. Avoid the deformation of batteries by pressure. Keep the recommended
usage conditions and temperatures by the manufacturer.

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Respiratory Protection - As any fire situation is happened, use self-contained breathing
apparatus.
Eye Protection - Safety glasses are recommended.
Protective Gloves - In case of leakage, wear gloves.
Other Protective Clothing: In the event of leakage, wear chemical apron.

10. Stability and Reactivity

Stability - Stable (hermetically sealed type, used in recommended conditions)
Condition to Avoid - Give too much force, drop, crush & disassemble, short-circuit, recharge,
fire & heat above 100 (212), incinerate and etc.
Material to Avoid - Alkali, water, mineral acid
Hazardous Decomposition Products * Reaction of lithium metal with water: Hydrogen (H2) / Lithium oxide (Li2O) and Lithium
hydroxide (LiOH)
* Thermal decomposition over 150C: Hydrochloric acid (HCI) and Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
* Electrolyte (Lithium tetrachloroaluminate, LiAlCl4) with water: Hydrochloric acid (HCI) fumes,
Lithium oxide (Li2O), Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) and Aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3)

11. Toxicological Information

Not Applicable
In the event of rupture or leakage, corrosive fumes from the battery can cause
Inhalation - Burn or irritation of the respiratory system
Eye Contact - Redness, tearing, burns
Skin - Skin irritation and burns
Ingestion - Tissue damage to throat and gastro-respiratory track
Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure - eczema, skin allergies, lung injuries,
asthma and other respiratory disorders may occur.

12. Ecological Information

1) Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries do not have environmental hazard under normal usage
and proper disposal.
2) Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries do not contain mercury, cadmium or other heavy metals.

13. Disposal Considerations

1) Dispose under the regulation in each country.
XENOENERGY CO., LTD.

2) Dispose by incineration or burial at permitted waste treatment and disposal sites

14. Transportation
